Currently, vorbis-tools always builds ogg123 ("an ogg vorbis command line audio player"), which is the only part of this package that needs curl and libao. The following patch should make this optional. I chose "curl" as an additional USE flag.

Not USE=curl, please - that just makes no sense: # euse -i curl global use flags (searching: curl) ************************************************************ [+ ] curl - Adds support for client-side URL transfer library
My vote is for adding an 'ogg' use flag. Anyone from sound want to comment?
(In reply to comment #3) > My vote is for adding an 'ogg' use flag. Anyone from sound want to comment? To be frank, I think this makes even less sense than "curl". :-) Ogg support is being built with or without this flag. USE=minimal looks quite appropriate to me (with the logic of the patch reversed, of course).
minimal use flag it is, thanks guys, fixed in CVS
